Got Knots Massage Therapy

Nadine Munro had been working as a massage therapist for about nine years when, in 2009, she decided to open her own clinic out of her home. “It started with me in a corner room in the house and now it’s the entire top floor of our house,” says Nadine. Her company, Got Knots Massage Therapy, now has two contract massage therapists, in addition to herself, trained in several different techniques of massage.

“At the beginning, I wasn’t sure how it was going to work out,” says Nadine. One thing she wanted to create with Got Knots Massage Therapy was a professional atmosphere for her clients. “When people pull up front of the house, they very much know it’s a house," she says. "But, when they come in, the first thing they see is a big desk and chairs in the living room for waiting. It doesn’t look like a house when you come in and that’s very important." Nadine had been to home-based massage therapy clinics in the past and always found it odd when walking past a person's living room and bedrooms. She wanted a feeling of separation in her own home clinic.
